I downloaded this code from Sparkfun
I get this error "NewSoftSerial does not name a type"
I downloaded the NewSoftSerial file to the library with all the other files.
I have #include <NewSoftSerial.h> in mysketch
What am I missing?

Nathan SeidleThis code is public domain but you buy me a beer if you use this and we meet someday (Beerware license).
This code works with the VS1053 Breakout Board and controls the VS1053 in what is called Real Time MIDI mode.
To get the VS1053 into RT MIDI mode, power up the VS1053 breakout board with GPIO0 tied low, GPIO1 tied high.I use the NewSoftSerial library to send out the MIDI serial at 31250bps. This allows me to print regular messages
for debugging to the terminal window. This helped me out a ton.5V : VS1053 VCC
GND : VS1053 GND
D3 (SoftSerial TX) : VS1053 RX
D4 : VS1053 RESETAttach a headphone breakout board to the VS1053:
VS1053 LEFT : TSH
VS1053 RIGHT : RSH
VS1053 GBUF : GNDWhen in the drum bank (0x78), there are not different instruments, only different notes.
To play the different sounds, select an instrument # like 5, then play notes 27 to 87.To play "Sticks" (31):
talkMIDI(0xB0, 0, 0x78); //Bank select: drums
talkMIDI(0xC0, 5, 0); //Set instrument number
//Play note on channel 1 (0x90), some note value (note), middle velocity (60):
